Not all crossovers fully emphasise the slightly higher seating position that's supposed to help define this class of car but this one does, positioning you quite commandingly in front of a smartly-bespoke
softtouch dashboard.
Highlights for me included the smart metallic trim sweeping across the
softtouch faux leather dash and the quilted-finish look to the sound-system speakers that echoed patterns on the perforated leather seats.
The black and gray surface of the stock is covered in a coating that Bergara calls
SoftTouch, which is a slightly springy non-slip coating.
Grained leather upholstery and plenty of plush
softtouch surfaces complete the upmarket feel with heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, ambient interior lighting and a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system ensuring passengers travel in comfort.
The cabin shares much with the lesser Ceed hatchback but that is no bad thing since it is well built and features good quality plastics and
softtouch finishes.
Quality woods and
softtouch plastics give the cabin a truly Jaguar feel.
The handle has a
softtouch grip and features an on/off trigger for ease of use.
There are lots of
softtouch surfaces, ambient lighting plus bespoke door sills and mats.
Like all BMWs the interior is of the highest quality, with premium
softtouch material, high-gloss black-panel look and aluminium trim strips in the wood panelling.
There's extensive use of
softtouch materials, premium veneers and all-new door trims.
For sanding with hand power, the PreppinO Weapon Sanding Block Kit and Norton
SoftTouch Sanding Sponges are handy helpers.
The interior is beautifully designed with leather upholstery, lots of
softtouch surfaces and carbon-effect inserts on the dashboard.
